Present Continuous
Try to find out how to form the present continuous using these examples
Affirmative I am studying! You are working hard today.
She is talking to Fred. He is playing the guitar.
It is going well today.
We are watching that new movie.
They are listening to music.
affirmative = bevestigend (een normale zin)
In an affirmative sentence we create the present simple by the correct form of the verb to be (am / are / is) and adding the present participle (verb + ing)
verb = werkwoord
present participle = onvoltooid deelwoord
Dit is altijd het werkwoord met ing erachter, bijvoorbeeld: walking, studying, playing, etc.

Spelling matters
Try to find out what the exceptions are.
#1 I am taking the bus today.
We are refusing to work!
#2 I am dying!
I know he is lying.
#3
They are swimming in the lake.
Mike is running to get the bus.
If you have a word that ends with a 'silent' e, do not write the e, so not takeing.
If you have a word that ends with ie, like die / tie / lie; change the ie into y.
One-syllable words that end with a CVC structure (consonant - vowel - consonant) get a double consonant, so no swiming or runing.
syllable = lettergreep
consonant = medeklinker
vowel = klinker
